Meet incoming transfer student Paul Coppola! Paul is an aspiring Advertising major from Riverton, NJ (Burlington County) who transferred from Bucks County Community College. He shares more about what he’s looking to discover at Rowan and offers some advice to other transfers.

Welcome to Rowan! Could you share with us one thing you are looking forward at Rowan University?

I’m looking forward to the general experience of going to school that isn’t a community college. The experience to me sounds like an enjoyable one and I couldn’t be more excited about it.

Is there anything you’re hoping to discover about yourself at Rowan? Grow a new skill? Try a new interest? Starting a new activity, sport or club?

I’ve recently become interested in writing. I had joined a Philadelphia Eagles blog and honed my skills there but I wish to increase those during my time at Rowan.

What majors are you considering and why?

I will be majoring in Advertising because I enjoy the creative aspect behind it and that world in general just fascinates me.

Did you tour Rowan or attend any virtual events? If so, which ones, and what did you think?

I attended a virtual orientation. I enjoyed the process a lot. They had made it sound like a much easier transition than I had originally thought it was going to be.

Do you have advice for other transfers who haven’t committed to a school yet?

Just breathe. You’ll find the school of your dreams. It may not happen immediately but you’ll get that acceptance letter and feel a sense of relief.

Where are you going to live next year?

Commute from home.

What is one thing about Rowan itself that you liked?

The environment!

Like what you see?
